CHAPTER 3
AFTER PARTY
"How did he even know it was me?"
The thought that Zin figured out what I did bothered me a lot. Mula sa kotse hanggang sa pagdating sa venue ay tulero ako. I keep on mumbling about it as we walked inside nightclub that is reserved just for the Elites.
Our names were checked by one of Senyor's staff before we could go inside. Hindi kasi pwedeng may mga strangers kaming kasama. Aside from the fact that people tend to take advantages of drunk wealthy people like us, delikado na lumabas sa media ang mga mangyayari tonight.
Truth is, we party hard. At isang malaking kahihiyan kapag nalaman ng mga tao kung gaano kami ka-wild tuwing naglalasing kami. A lot of people are still not open minded to things like this.
Kaya nga may isang rule na pinatupad si Senyor for every after-party, No Cellphones Allowed! We all want to have fun without worrying about our actions here. Tao din naman kasi kami. Hindi kami perpekto. Gusto lang din namin minsan maging normal.
"Girls..." pagpapaalala ni Ava kaya iniabot na namin ang mga cellphone namin sa receptionist. Pinaiiwan talaga ang mga ito bago pumasok sa loob. Hindi pa kasi namin kilala 'yung mga bagong sumali. Baka mamaya ay kuhanan pa kami ng pictures at videos. Kung kami kami lang mga original members, okay lang naman. Sabay sabay na kami lumaki kaya sure akong walang epal na mangingielam pero kada taon kasi, may nadadagdag sa listahan.
I don't even know how those kids got insanely rich. I only know one lucky b*tch, she won the lottery but I forgot her name...
"Nakita ba tayo ni Zin?" tanong ko na naman sa mga kaibigan ko.
"I don't know. Baka naman nakahalata lang siya dahil nagtinginan tayo kanina. Forget about it Caylee. I'm sure he won't make a big deal out of it. Hindi naman kotse niya ang nasira kundi kay Theo," Ava told me.
"You kidding me? Hindi mo yata siya kilala. Buong gabi ako aasarin non!"
Tumawa si Naomi. "Alam mo, bilib din talaga ako diyan kay Zin. Hindi mo talaga siya matalo-talo noh?" Tinignan ko siya ng masama kaya niyakap niya ang bewang ko. "Charrrr! Labyu Caylee! Tara na, let's get our asses wasted!" Hinila na nila ako kaya tumawa na lang ako.
What I love about our after-parties is that they'll never be boring. We have the world's famous DJs, sometimes they even hire popular bands to give us live music and of course, mind-blowing cocktails made by top bartenders.
Humanap agad kami ng empty couch at umupo doon.
"Drinks, ladies?" tanong ni Damian sa amin. He is Dashiell's older brother by only a year which makes him our Kuya but we're not used to calling him that kaya first name basis na lang ang pagtawag namin sa kanya.
Speaking of Dashiell, nasaan na kaya si Iris at bakit wala pa ang dalawang 'yon?
"Yes please!" masayang sagot ni Tiff na sinangayunan na rin ng iba ko pang mga kaibigan.
"Why are you here?" tanong ko kay Damian nang mapansing wala siyang ibang kasama. His group isn't here.
"Hindi ulit sila sumali sa palaro ngayong taon kaya wala sila dito." His friends are the kind of people who doesn't like socializing. Hindi lang nila trip.
"And you? Why'd you join this year?"
"Don't worry Caylee, hindi naman kita kakalabanin. Chill. Come on, let's take a picture." He called the official photographer and we smiled on the camera. The guy's only taking pictures at the beginning of the party. Kapag lasing na kami ay 'di na pwede.
